Thanks,
I was told that you can't get them anymore from MAK Magic. Daytona makes them but they are made from ply. Even the blade is ply covered with aluminum. I make my blades from stainless. Ray

Thanks for reminding me about Daytona Magic. I've got a chapter in the new book about my experiences with all the dealers and they still owe for a dozen wands!! I thought they had gone out of business. I better add that to the chapter called The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly Did they buy MAK??

Plywood??? I guess it's hard to find a straight fir 2 x 4 any more.
Thanks for the link. -=tabman

I try to use poplar. Always wanted to make one out of walnut but couldn't see the added expense, and nobody ordered one in walnut. Here's a link to Daytona magic. http://www.daytonamagic.com

Poplar is a good straight wood. The way you have it stained, it looks great to my eyes. I used mine for a card trick similar to the Jumbo Card Guillotine routine except I glued the chosen card to the gaff. I would sign it so the audience would recognize it again. I played it for comedy and putting a six foot tall guillotine on a table makes it play really big and noisy too. Give the deck of cards a shove as the bladed comes through for effect.
Anyway, just rambling when I should be writing. I should vanish for a couple weeks until I get Tabman Magic finished and at the printer. I'll try but now that Ive reconnected here at the Café it's gonna be difficult. All the best, -=tabman

In my experience, poplar sometimes gives a green cast when finished with lighter stains, but it is a wonderful all-around wood for projects.
Things are more like they are today than they've ever been before...

Great guilliotine! I started and got to the supporting uprights. I've been away this easter so I didn't get a chance to build and this week the easter hollidays were over. I'll continue the building tomorrow.
